Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results by Shane Parrish

informative reflective medium-paced

5.0

"Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments into Extraordinary Results" by Shane Parrish is an engaging guide to more effective decision-making. The book explores natural cognitive defaults and provides techniques for overriding these to enhance clarity of thought. Parrish emphasizes the importance of accurately defining problems, applying correct decision-making principles, and creating a safety margin in decisions. The book, drawing on various fields including philosophy and psychology, ends with the 3+ Principle: Force yourself to explore at least three possible solutions to a problem, not just an either-or, binary framing approach.

I recommend this book to everyone who wants to make better decisions and improve their thinking.
